I’m in awe that you make items with zippers. I love to see but never became good with zippers. You must be a good shopper to be able to sell for what you do. Nice quality.

I'm really sorry I clicked on this channel. Now you've got me now wanting to sew some bags and I don't even sew that well. But on a serious note you do EXCELLENT work! Your items are beautiful!

You have a lot of great stuff!! Those items you crochet seem like so much work and your prices seem a bit low for those. I hope you sell out at your show, people are starved for being able to shop in person. Good luck and looking forward to seeing the video from Saturday.

Great job 👏🏻 My best seller for art / craft shows are the Blue Calla Clematis. They sell out the fastest. I also make other Blue Calla patterns and lots of Swoon pattern handbags. Good luck 🍀 👍

I love going to craft shows with my creations. Your items are beautifully made, lovely fabrics and well priced! My popular items are something similar to your totes and my purses. I use canvas, upholstery and denim fabrics on the exterior and lined with cotton. My biggest struggle are people who want to haggle on the price or /tell/ me that my items are ‘pricy’. I don’t think they are aware of how $ fabric is or that my time in assembling/sewing isn’t worth paying for.

Regarding pricing for those who ask, it depends on how much your materials cost you, how long it takes you to make the product, the area you live in. I live in California, but the area is low to middle class income. I would have to price accordingly or the item will not sell. I don't think I could sell the more expensive bags either, because there would not be enough interest in higher priced items. Things to think about. Your bags are gorgeous and look very professional. TFS.

This was such a helpful video for me, I've struggled so much on how to price my handcrafted items. I recently bought tags with my logo and I now have a better idea on where to put the price, show a mark down on the tag (instead of retagging) and ideas for bags to make that might be a good seller at my next craft show. I too have other non bag items such as mitered reversible napkins and crocheted dishcloths / towels items that I sell. I love your chenille scrunchies, too cute!! Thank you for all the links to the patterns you make, your ideas/videos inspire me to create more!

@miriamnahom3963 3 жыл бұрын

Everything you’ve made is gorgeous. I give everything I make. Sometimes people ask me if I sell. But seriously, I haven’t got the confidence to sell. Even though I make nice stuff. My kids keep telling me to sell. I make the cutest doll blanket and pillow sets, lots of hair accessories, tote bags, mug rugs and coasters with adorable fabric and other cute stuff. Question- do people ever bargain with you to try to get you to lower your price. I think you should charge more for the backpacks. $55.00 is not enough. You should charge $65.00. Good luck and much success!!!

Everything looks great. Thank you so much for sharing your prices. For those of us who don’t do shows yet, this info is invaluable! I just purchased 10 yards of flannel with our most popular college football team’s logo. I’m planning to make infinity scarves with hidden pockets. My cost will be close to $10 per scarf, so I hope I can get $25 for them. Does that sound reasonable to you?

What type of zipper are you using and where do you get them. I am finding zippers to be a bit pricey for the lower price points.

so I see a lot of your fabrics is from moremeknow and I know the cost......with the cost of materials, zippers thread etc.... Are you making about $10 for your labor? are you making more than one an hour? With the cost of the booth and materials, are you making are your clearing $100-$200 for the day? Then how many do you do in a year? I am thinking I might have access to 3-4 a year but that means all the work I do I would only be clearing $1,000. a year........Please tell me I am off on my numbers, this could not come close to replacing my $50,000 annual income from my regular job. Your bags are lovely and I hope you sold out.
